Experiences of Problem Gamblers, Their Loved Ones and Service Providers - Stage 3

Released in January 2006, this report is the third in a series of reports commissioned by the Gambling Research Panel to investigate why people gamble to excess, the impacts of problem gambling, and to determine the most effective types of services and interventions provided by problem gambling services.

The principal aims of this study were to:

  • assist in improving the effectiveness of services for problem gamblers and their loved ones
  • provide a better understanding of why people gamble to excess by exploring the perceptions and behaviour of gamblers themselves.

This research report summarises the results and provides an overview of the findings from the third of the three rounds of research, and aims to provide an overall perspective of longitudinal trends and emerging issues related to problem gambling in Victoria.
